Why didn't I do this sooner?
January 10, 2025

I saw an ad for 1-800-CONTACTS and I decided to try it. I saved money and they were delivered to my home sooner than they said. I am very satisfied with the product and service.

Not understanding the fees
January 4, 2025

I enjoyed the ease of ordering contacts online and them being a reasonable price. However, I do not understand the fees being the same price as the contacts. So unless I'm bulk ordering, I'm not sure how this is saving me money in the long run.

Right now I'm not happy. I've used the same contacts for over 15 years and the ones I received from your place doesn't allow me to see out of the contacts. Freshlook colors has been my brand and I traditionally order from 1 800 contacts. I tried you and I have a 3 month supply and the first two I put in this morning doesn't allow me to see.
